are we twins?

Jennifer had two encounters on her occupation....well, it does not go so well for me lo... but i also have another lesson learnt to share with everyone...

so, when i first moved to Singapore, my colleagues are all curious about me... they just want to know more about me :p some of them who are married with kids envy me for being single...for being able to just go anywhere whenever i can without thinking about kids and hubby... well, i do have other commitments which they don't know of... but in comparison, i'm of coz more flexible than them...

then after being curios with my life, they are curious with the types of guys i like... so when we were chit chatting one day, someone asked me if i could accept my other half to be Indian....without thinking, i said "no".... the trouble then comes the night when i called uber/grab to go to the airport...

my flight was at midnight...so i took the car at around 10pm... the car came, it was a young indian guy...not thinking much, i got in...then the guy started to chat with me about this and that.... then he was also curious with what i do... i didnt really like to tell stranger too much about myself... so i just replied: "my job is very common"... something along that line..can't really remember. but he was still very persistent and kept guessing.... not wanting to reply so i asked him to guess... while driving, suddenly he turned his whole body back and looked at me and said: "i think you are a masseur"... he said with 100% confidence... upon hearing the answer, i almost fainted! Masseur?! which part do i look like a masseur?! because i look like a mainland chinese? sigh... then this person asked me for my number... it was 10 something pm at night and i was scared... i just told him i would give him later because he was driving...deep down, i was sweating and panicking...what should i say, what should i do? so, out of desperation, i said, “why don't you gimme your number since you are driving?” He did and i left in a hurry... before leaving, he asked me to message him about my trip... i said ok...and deep down, i was telling him... IN YOUR DREAM! buwahahaha... that was scary though.

then the other day, Jenn and i went to a nursery... while asking about this and that, the owner asked what jennifer works as... as our usual self, we don't like to share too many detail with strangers. Jenn asked him one question, he answered and jenn validated his answer by checking it... the guy exclaimed in joy and said:"i know, you must be from finance!" honestly, jenn and i were both a bit shocked as in why he could get it right just because of one action... perhaps he is lucky or perhaps he really could tell :p hhhmmmmm... then he asked me also but i didnt answer...

After that, we started to bargain with the owner... i don't know why, sometimes i just like to bargain for the sake of bargaining...but of coz it also depends on who the counterpart is... then after x mins, the guy finally gave in and said he would take the middle price... DEAL! out of the blue, this guy then told us about his precious collections... they are indeed very nice so i just blurted if he could sell to us... his answer was firm. NO! not giving up, i asked if he could lend us... then this guy said, you are definitely not in Finance...  hahaha...well...this time he is definitely wrong... im guessing he was lucky with Jennifer just now then... this is still an interesting remark though

hahaha it has nothing to do with my occupation. I'm from the Scorpio department. Trusting people at first sight is impossible, validating something is natural hahaha...

masseur! ha ha ha! u didn't kick his butt! i would if i were you.

aiyo~ what's so secret about your occupation leh? finance isn't something that should be ashamed of, and u can stop them from keep asking mah.
